Stamatiou Konstantinos was born in Athens, Greece, and nowadays lives and works in New York. He has studied sculpture and media in San Francisco, Austin Texas and New York.

Kavvatha Antigoni

Antigoni deals with the world of shadows, in black and white compositions, manipulating them to suggest what is not there. She infuses them with substance by detaching them from the real objects and assigns them the role of a mirror, creating idols, images, and scenarios not through their forms but through their projected images. She deceives our senses and presents us with phantom world, where shadow is a comment rather than an alibi.
